That guy (working for one of the smallest and finest shop in Milan, in a small street in center, but difficult to find) is one of the best store clerck's in Milan, and of course he's very elegant.

What i would like to notice is that when you go shop there, he or one of his collegues follows you and help you find ing what you need , without attitude and without leaving you alone for a single second..Not like the inefficient wannabe models at usa Ralph Lauren(the only good ones are in Tokio and again in Milan) or Bergdorf Goodman.

So everyone who's in love with sartorialis expression should experience in Milan: Al Bazaar, Bardelli or Doriani, to name just a few.Enjoy!

I don´t think that it is a good idea to mix brown and black together. Don´t find anything surprising in this picture.

On their own, the pants and the jacket rock. However, I've always been paralyzed by mixing brown and black so overtly. What is a good rule of thumb for brown and black?

I was just wondering, do you take photos of people at night at all? It's definitely a lot easier to take photos during the day since you've got more light but then again, there are ways to get around it. It'd be interesting to see how people dress themselves once the sun goes down. :)

If it wasn't was his background provided by you - I would think car sales man.. NTTAWWT..

I'm sure the colour scheme (brown self stripe jacket, black panys, brown suede shoes) worls well under the Milanese industrial colour - but like previously mentioned by another poster this would get lost in translation under harsher lights..

I like it. I'd certainly look twice (and a third time...and a fourth)if he passed me on the street.

I think it's true that this look might not fly in the U.S.A., simply because most American men are not risk takers in the clothing area. The black and brown combo is not "safe" enough.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned that he's wearing a pinstripe jacket with plain trousers. I have never cared for that style, personally, and I think the mix of colors and fabrics here makes it seem very amateurish. He looks immensely rakish, but I just personally don't care for the ensemble.

I find I like the cut of the jacket, but the trousers seem too casual for the pinstripe DBjacket, the grey causes even a more jarring contrast.I am not a big fan of suede buckled shoes with such a seemingly formal suit jacket. Unbuttoned cuffs? A tad too affected, it tries a little too hard, Milan or not.
